We all get stuck: paralyzed about a decision, unsure what choice to make or to not make. Stuck in resentment or disappointment we can’t quite recover from. Stuck in a plan that’s not working as anticipated. Stuck in a destructive, repetitive relationships with family members, coworkers, or friends.

And, when we’re stuck, things feel immovable, entrenched, even hopeless. The good news is in reality you nor I are ever really stuck. We as human beings are actually extremely adept at getting unstuck, at seeing the same thing in new ways, discovering new insights and changing our attitudes. But we need to consciously set our intentions to get "unstuck" and truly be willing to change before our situations will change. First, you and I need to surrender, completely to what is, not just a little. Feeling like you are banging your head against a wall or swimming upstream signals a need for surrender. And, surrendering doesn’t mean endorsing or even tolerating what is happening; it just means accepting reality. After you have completely surrendered, you will be able to see your opportunities a lot clearer. Next, in order to get unstuck you will need to detach from the outcome of your decisions and the fears about things not working out, and instead focus solely on what exactly you want and need. In this way, the uncertainty can lead to opportunity. Finally, as you are able to see new opportunities, it is essential to let go of the need to fix everything fast! And, it is always helpful to remind yourself that you’re doing the best you can, as fast as you can. When you’re finally able to let go of your fears and be proactive about your decisions, you will find that life is yours again, to be shaped and lived in any way you like.

Just for today, I surrender to what is. I let go of what was and I have faith in what will be. I am willing to see how and where I need to change. I am willing to change and grow. When I am ready to make positive changes in my life, I attract whatever it is I need to help me. I choose to make the rest of my life the best of my life. I am safe, it is only change and everything is working out for my highest good. And so it is.
